Alexis Riker, needs some time away, alone. She's finished her graduate degree in photography and a teaching position awaits her in the fall. She's practically engaged to a guy with a more than promising future. The more she thinks about her plan to attend an artists' retreat in Massachusetts, the crazier she realizes it is.

Yet camera equipment in tow, Alexis arrives at Rocky Shoals, determined to discover God's purpose for her art-and her life. She hasn't heard that still, small voice in a long time. But then again, she hasn't had time to listen.

A pair of twin lighthouses, a wealthy Texas socialite, a troubles teenager, and a mischievously handsome sportswriter from Chicago are about to give Alexis a semester of life lessons she'll never forget. And a portfolio bound be a deeper faith than she thought possible.
